So far only heard Dashboard which is a good song, but quite different from the Modest Mouse I grew up listening to on Skate Videos. Also wonder if it was their idea to have horns like baroque pop or if that was a producer thing.

Overall the production and composition were great, though I could see how this could be off putting for a big Modest Mouse fan. Though you can't blame an artist for wanting to branch out, otherwise you end up releasing the same album for twenty years. At that point you would be making art to make money rather than making art to just make ART!

Also I write and sing indie music for anyone who likes alternative music.
